Russia to respond if Finland joins NATO
July 2, 2016 - Stay away from Russian borders or keep transponders on.
Russia will respond accordingly if neighboring Finland joins NATO, said Russian President Vladimir Putin. However, Moscow will try to begin a dialogue with NATO despite its expansion towards Russia’s borders. Putin will try to begin the dialogue with NATO at the summit in Brussels.

Putin and Finnish President Sauli Niinisto agreed to develop a set of security measures to control flights over the Baltic Sea. Finland’s president said military flights should avoid turning off their identification devices in the region, which is frequented by both Russian and NATO planes.

Niinisto said, We all know the risk with these flights and I have suggested that we should agree that transponders are used on all flights in the Baltic Sea region. Putin noted that NATO planes conduct flights over the Baltics with their transponders off twice as often as Russian planes.
